Health Experts Say You Shouldn't Eat Too Many Bananas (THAT'S A BIG LIE) – Dr Alan Mandell DC
Simple Recipes / Sarah Crowder
It seems like almost every banana bread recipe calls for very ripe bananas. The same goes for banana cookies banana pancakes banana muffins banana smoothies and many other delicious banana recipes: the terms "very ripe" and "overripe" keep coming up.
As bananas ripen they become sweeter and more flavorful as their starch turns to sugar making them more delicious to eat out of hand and great for sweet recipes like banana bread. They are perfect for baking when they are speckled brown all over and have a strong fruity smell. Bananas also soften as they ripen and their crunchiness makes them ideal for treats and creamy smoothies.
